The ideal candidate is someone who enjoys solving real machine problems, can work directly with electrical and mechanical teams, and wants to have a meaningful impact inside a growing automation company.
Responsibilities include PLC programming, HMI development, machine debug, electrical troubleshooting support, startup/commissioning, customer support, documentation, and helping improve our internal controls standards.
